Well holy crap, talk about brutal city fighting. On the bright side we did secure a couple of objectives, leaving only one left. The fighting is bloody and the Germans are counter-attacking with vigor. Block after block is being heavily contested. I showed what to do to assault a city, and what not to do. Ha! We are winding down to the last handful of turns, but it will be brutal until the bitter end by the looks of it.

We caught the tail end of my installation of the JTCS 2.03 BETA UPDATE, and then played it this session. Apart from the teething problem, we dove back into the action. And holy, what action it was. I haven't cursed this much in awhile as I am trying to grab that last point. We managed to get within striking distance of the last victory location and, of course, it's a freaking bunker. Talk about a tense ending! Only 5 turns to go and I have to take that blasted bunker out. And so it begins.

I went over the notes for the JTCS 2.03 UPDATE that will be released tomorrow and then we dove back into the Aachen. We did it!! Victory is ours. We secured the last Victory Point location and destroyed a large amount of Germans in various pockets. We went over the point totals and losses after the battle. What a messy fight and I'm grateful I wasn't playing a human in this scenario. Wow, what a fun fight that I highly recommend!
